CTD copy and pastes the description form the troy website product description. NEITHER sights troys NOR the retailer had mention that they product would not work in any particular situation. I based my shopping from troys website, then found that CTD had the same product part number copied straight from TROY, for less, and since i had other stuff i wanted from CTD, it was a clear choice. What more could i have done, besides hire an advertising channel to find someone with this same product for me to test on my gun, prior to buying it, to find out that it was not the right product. I already had talked to someone at troy, told them what the gun was i built, and was assured that product would work.

Did I miss where he said he bought them at Bud's? I read Cheaper Than Dirt only (or was there an edit?).

no worries.
I was just venting guys, its not that big of a deal. and im still hopeful they will get it solved eventually.

You mean something along the lines of this?
"Now, Troy has developed a rugged low-profile sight designed for firearms with top rails higher than the standard M4."
You have an M4, Troy's site specifically states that the micro sights are not for a standard M4.
Maybe I'm missing something here....
I'm missing it too...
The customer is always right, but the customer sometimes need to do a little research too. Troy didn't sell you the wrong sights, Cheaper Than Dirt did....IMHO, you're lucky Troy is willing to deal with you. This is between you and CTD.
I see notes all over Troy's pages about what application the sights are intended for. In addition to the above posted description of the low pros, the Fixed M4 sights state the following:
"Technical Specifications
Sight is designed to work on same-plane rail systems only
Will not work with a railed gas block that is higher or lower than the receiver
Hardened T6 Aircraft Aluminum with stainless steel components
Front sight must be mounted at the same height plane as the rear sight. Railed gas blocks that are lower than receiver height will not zero properly."
Know your weapon, and know what you are buying. I hope you get it all worked out.
